He Should Remain Ex-speaker Carlisle


A great many Democrats who were in the
last House Of Representatives and some Of
the new members do not want to elect Mr..
John g. Carlisle speaker OF the next House,
and yet the probabilities are that their cow
ardice and sycophancy will result In his
election.
These Democrats are controlled by vari-
ous reasons in their objection to Mr.. Car
lisle Some OF them-probably twenty five
altogether-oppose Mr.. Carlisle because Of
his free trade proclivties; Others are op-
posed to him because Of his arbitrary re-
fusal to permit motion to suspend the
rules to call up the bill to repeal the to-
bacco tax; still Others oppose Mr.. Carlisle
for the reason that he led the opposition to
and defeated the Blair educational bill
when large majority Of the House was iu
favor OF It's passage.
A majority OF the Democrats In the House
are In sympathy with Mr.. Carlisle's tariff
views, and for some inscrutable reason
consider him great man and a great
leader, when, as matter OF fact, his lead
ership has reduced a Democratic majority OF
forty-fve in the forty-ninth Congress to a
maj lrity Of eiegeR In the llftleth, and It is
more than probable that the Democrats
who oppose hlm-who know that his policy
is ruInous to the party and the country
will enter the Democratic caucus, feebly
oppose his nomination, and then walk into
the House and vote for him.
There are two causes for this expected
action. One Is the cowardlce Of the men
who oppose Carlisle. They are afraid Of
the caucus and afraid not to go into 1t
Another reason is their sycophancy. They
think, and probably correctly, that Mr..
Carlisle Is In sympathy with President
Cleveland, and that way lies patronage and
power; so they "crook the pregnant hinges
OF the knee that thrift may follow fawn-
ing"
There are 1853 Democrats In the House OF
Representatives, 15l Republicans, with two
vacancies that will be filed by Republicans,
making their vote 1853, and four indepen-
dents. This gives the Democrats major
ity Of eleven over all opposition. 1t re-
auires 1863 votes to elect.
Can any Democrat who represents to-

Revenue Reform.

The Washington Post, discussing what IL
calls revenue reform, says: at is fact
that the Democratic party cannot, either
through caucus decree or otherwise, pass q
revenue reform bill"
There has been no difficulty and will be
no difficulty In passing a genuine revenue
reform bill. Ex-Speaker Carlisle prevented
the passage OF one In the last Congress by
an arbitrary usurpation, which would have
created revolution in England, when he
refused to recognize member OF the House,
his equal as a representative Of the people,
to move suspension of the rules to pass
the bill to remove the tobacco tax.
1t is true, and the people of the country
have every reason to be thankful for 1t,
that the wild theorists In the Democratic
party and the moss covered Bourbons In It
cannot pass any bill, either "by caucus de-
cree or otherwise that will strike down
the Industries Of the country, ruin its en-
terprising capitalists, and place its work.
iDgmen on par as to wages with the
poorly-pald laborers of Europe.
Our neighbor OF the Post seems to be all
at sea about what the Democrats should do,
and even talks about calling on some myth
calrevenue reform Republicans to assist the
Democrats in passing bill. That is an
ignis .fdtuus which, II the Post follows, will
lead 1t into the bogs and mire even more
deeply than 1t is now.
In order to prepare tariff bill for the
purpose OF reducing the revenue to the
necessities OF the government, will the Post
inform the public what duties should
be placed on sugar. pig iron, wool, and
steel, and bar ironS Perhaps discussion
upon special articles like the above may
bring out facts that will unite Democrats
and Republicans on common measure.

A Wonderful Cat.

A wonderful story about cat is told by
the st. Louis Globe Democrat: This cat
has litter of three kittens. Not being
satisfied with this small family, she went
out and brought in two young rabbits and
adopted them as part OF her family
care as did she her own
young A few days later she captured
three young coons and added them to her
family. At last accounts the novel family
OF one mother cat, three kittens, two rab-
bits, and three young coons were living In
perfect harmony, all In one nest.

Farming III Chill Is conducted on the old
feudal system The country is divided into
great estates OWNED by people who hive i'll the
cities and seldom visit their haciendas. as
they are called. The tenants are permanent,
and have retainers M lt,. form of little cot
tages and gardens, for Which they pay no
rent. If the landlord requires their services
they are always subject to his call, and are
paid by the day month for whatever labor
they perform, generally in orders upon the
supply store or comniSsary of the estate
where they can obtain food, clothing and
other articles, and rum-especially rum They
are given small credits at these stores and as
the law prohibits tenant from leaving a
landlord to whom he is in debt, the former is
never permitted to settle his account The
poems never get ahead They live and die on
the same estates and in the same cabins where
their fathers and grandfathers lived and died,
and know nothing of the world or the condi-
tions of men around them Although they
are badly treated ill most cases, they are al
WAYS LOYAL to their masters and take their
peonage as matter of course.

it was mustered out, became thieves, beggars
and highwaymen. There is not enough labor
in the country To work the farms, and the
lack has not only caused higher wages to be
paid, but has done much to break up the old
system. immigration is encouraged, labor
